1 And he showed to me a river of water of life bright as a crystal, proceeding out of the throne of the God and of the lamb.
2 In midst of the broad place of her and of the river on this side and on that side a wood of life, bearing fruits twelve, according to month each one yielding the fruit of itself; and the leaves of the wood for healing of the nations.
3 And every curse not shall be longer; and the throne of the God of the lamb in her shall be; and the bondservants of him shall publicly serve him;
4 and they shall see the face of him, and the name of him on the foreheads of them.
5 And night not shall be longer; and no need of lamp and of light of sun, because Lord the God will shine on them; and they shall reign for the ages of the ages.
6 And he said to me: These the words faithful ones and true ones; and Lord the God of the spirits of the prophets sent the messenger of himself to show to the bondservants of himself, the things it behooves to have done with speed.
7 And lo, I come speedily; blessed the one keeping the words of the prophecy of the scroll this.
8 And I John the one hearing and seeing these things; and when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the messenger the one showing to me these things.
9 And he says to me: See not; a fellowbondservant of thee I am, and of the brethren of thee of the prophets, and of those keeping the words of the scroll this; to the God give thou reverence.
10 And he says to me: Not thou mayest seal the words of the prophecy of the scroll this; the season near is.
11 The one acting unjustly let him be unjust still, and the filthy one let him be filthy still; and the righteous one righteousness let him do still, and the holy one let him be holy still.
12 Lo, I come speedily, and the reward of me with me, to give back to each one as the work of him shall be.
13 I the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
14 Blessed those doing the commandments of him, so that shall be the authority of them over the wood of the life, and by the gates they may enter into the city.
15 Outside the dogs and the sorcerers and the fornicators and murderers and the idolaters, and every one the one loving and doing falsehood.
16 I Jesus sent the messenger of me to testify to you these things to the congregations; I am the root and the offspring of David, the star the bright the morning.
17 And the spirit and the bride say: Come thou; and the one hearing let him say: Come thou; and the one thirsting let him come, the one willing let him take water of life gratis.
18 Testify I to all to the one hearing the words of the prophecy of the scroll this. If any one may add to them, will add the God to him the plagues those having been written in the scroll this;
19 and if any one may take away from the words of the scroll of the prophecy this, will take the God the portion of him from the wood of the life, and out of the city the holy, of those having been written in the scroll this.
20 He says the one testifying these things: Yes I come speedily. So be it, come thou, O Lord Jesus.
21 The favor of the Lord Jesus Anointed, with all of the holy ones.
1 He showed me a pure river of water of life. It was clear as crystal and flowed out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 This was in the middle of the street of the city. The tree of life was on each side of the river. It produced twelve kinds of fruit and yielded the fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 There will be no curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city. His servants will serve him.
4 They will see his face and his name will be in their foreheads.
5 There will be no night there. They need no lamp, neither light of the sun, for Jehovah God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.
6 Then he said to me: "These sayings are faithful and true. Jehovah the God of the holy prophets sent his angel to show his servants the things that must shortly be done.
7 "Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he who obeys the words of the prophecy of this book."
8 I John saw these things and heard them. When I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things.
9 He said to me: »Do not do that, for I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and of those who obey the words of this book: worship God.«
10 And he says to me: "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near at hand.
11 "He who is unjust, let him be unjust still. And he who is filthy, let him be filthy still. And he who is righteous, let him be righteous still. And he who is holy, let him be holy still.
12 "'Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give to every man according as his work.
13 "'I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14 "'Blessed are those who obey his commandments. They have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates of the city.
15 "'Outside are the dogs impure men and those who practice spiritism, and fornicators, and murderers, and idolaters, and everyone who tells lies.'
16 "'I Jesus have sent my angel to tell you about these things in the congregations. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.'"
17 The Spirit and the bride say: "Come" And let him who hears say: "Come." And let him who is thirsty come. And whoever will, let him drink the water of life freely.
18 I testify to every man who hears the words of the prophecy of this book, if any man shall add to these things, God shall add to him the plagues that are written in this book.
19 If any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things that are written in this book.
20 He who testifies to these things says: "I come quickly." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
